Dee

As I mentioned in another post we had an unexpected present from santa show up on our door on Thanksgiving. It was one of his elves. Maddy gave her the name Dee. Thanksgiving night we left Dee on our kitchen table still on her shelf. When we woke up she was no longer there. We looked everywhere for her and finally found her "hanging" out.

I can't remember exactly the order she moved around in after Thanksgiving but here is what I remember. One night she moved over to Maddy's kitchen and sat on top. Maddy of coarse had to touch her, which meant she lost her magic, so she stayed there for two nights in a row. We found her on top of our movie case one morning and on the door jamb of the closet.
She was apparently cold when she came back on night cause we found her here one morning:

I started realizing that Dee just seemed to kind of move around so I wasn't sure what the fuss was all about that I have heard. Little did I know that Dee was just waiting for the official countdown to Christmas to begin. We woke up on December 1 and of coarse Dee had moved from her spot. It wasn't too hard to realize she moved because in the hallway under our countdown to Christmas calender, Dee had a great surprise for Maddy.

Maddy had just said she didn't want a big Christmas tree, but a tiny one. I asked her what color and she said pink. I guess Dee can hear us in the car too:)

On Sunday she landed on our big Christmas tree and had pulled out the lights to decorate with. I guess she got too tired to finish lol.

Maddy is finally starting to learn to look for her. I think it helps that her class has an elf too. She woke up this morning and told me she would be right back. I followed her to see what she was doing and she was looking for Dee.

This is Dee's events from Thanksgiving until December 4. She really has gone pretty easy on us thank goodness, but who knows how the rest of the season will go. Maddy LOVES trying to find her. If she does something good she wants me to tell Dee..it really is cute. No worries though, I am talking to Maddy about how Christmas is Jesus' birthday. I'm thinking of having a birthday party for Jesus on Christmas morning with her that way she knows what the real meaning of Christmas is. She is at such a fun age this Christmas and I'm just loving it!
